Containers, constructed using software like Docker, can be used to package code executing statistical analyses together with the required dependencies and can provide a fixed Secured Processing Environment (SPE). Distributing code to execute statistical analyses reusing sensitive health data in a federated research network can benefit from using containers, ensuring the reproducibility of analyses in federated analysis architectures.

Audience:
This initiative targets researchers producing and/or working with sensitive data and individuals with a more technical background who actively support these researchers.

Prerequisites:
Participants should have basic knowledge about containers or have someone in their institution who knows how to create containers but needs to gain experience in deploying them in the context of sensitive data analyses.
